Update 2016-04-20: Modding Support!

It required the server to use a settings file from a deathmatch arena as a replacement for the usual one (speedway1 in your example), I imagine it no longer works since whichever build introduced file verification (mostly fixing the A242 euro car exploit)

Well I've decided on a car I want to model. We'll have to see if I can find my way around in 3dmax.

It would be neat if Bugbear added server option: "ignore file mismatch" so we could still play those tracks, but keeping tracktime invalidation in place.

I tried out the bugtools for 3dsmax. Install was bit tricky. Run 3dsmax as administrator and then load with menu MaxScript > Run script... as drag and drop don't work.
Making small edits to existing model was relatively easy to do.

It's like a dream come true. ATM messing with camber values, and engine noises.

This is good stuff to hear! You've definitely added longevity to the game now.

...I better start learning to mod.

Thanks for the update. I noticed just one thing on tarmac 1:
On Tarmac 1 - I usually jumped over the little hill where it says "Tower" on the map. (just for fun - it's not faster!)


Now that doesn't work anymore ... I guess anti-cutting measurements? I also used to smash through the tower just for fun, but now the off-track sign appears very early. (you cut a little bit too much - the red sign appears). Maybe put some terrain there? I mean you can still cut a little - even smash through the tower, but if you cut just a little bit too much, you have to reset your car (or drive back) - that does feel quite artificial and not intuitive.


The player should be able to recognise the areas where you can cut and where you can't cut by DESIGN, not through invisible areas/checkpoints where you have no idea where you are allowed to drive. Just saying, it feels artificial and not intuitive.
If it is possible: an option to expand the checkpoint again (as it was in every other build) would be very much appreciated.

Hmm yeah maybe something could be done for that. Though the track design shows track limits very clearly. Anything that isn't asphalt, don't cut

I knew someone would say that, but I think you're just teasing . The problem is - you can cut to a certain amount, but you have no indication to what amount. A rock would be a very clear indicator for example. You could cut right from the rock, but if you drive left from the rock you'll get the off-track-sign. just an example. My personal favourite would be ramps or terrain that let's you cut but is not necessarily faster but maybe lets you fly back onto the track again. Cutting has to be possible to a certain amount, otherwise you could push someone just a little bit off track and his red sign appears, so that he has to reset or drive back. that would be too easy I think.

@Jannes There should be only a single batch in the solidbody -mesh

what are the limitations for solidbody? I have this error in the build window when I try to convert the BGO3.

In a game like this, they should just stick a barrier in areas where people will cut. Not really a fan of speed limiter when you go off track either. It's an odd design choice really.

That's likely one of the reasons why I think Gravel 1 and Mixed 1 are the current top 2 tracks. You know the tracks limits and you really can't even cut in those even when you can go out of the track.

Really digging the latest update news. Now maybe I can try to get this bad boy ingame somehow. I tried to get this working in another game but got frustrated and gave up on it.

Would love racing and derbying that car online. Wishing Destructo luck in getting the car in-game. 

definitely in line to download that chevy =p
